[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you work during the day, when else can you go for runs/walks but at night?   Some jobs require long shifts (For example, some hospital nurses that work 12 hour shifts, police, etc)
If you are training for a long distance race, your training runs will take up hours of time, so some of them will end up being in the dark.

Treadmill.

Go to a gym.

Walk the track at a high school.

All can be done after dark.[/quote]

Treadmills and gyms are a horrible substitute for running outside, especially if you've been stuck at a car and desk all day. And our local HS doesn't open the track for the public most of the time.

People should wear reflective clothes and not run in the middle of the road in the dark, obviously, but also...pay attention and don't run over people. The idea that people must not venture outdoors because the world is made for cars is really sad. [/quote]

Thank you for a real reply! I have a multiple year running streak (and almost every single run was outside). I'm more of a morning runner and always wear appropriate gear, but the idea that people can't go for a run outside is ridiculous. [/quote]
